1) www.irishgenealogy.ie The second phase of genealogy website www.irishgenealogy.ie was launched this week by the Archbishop of Dublin Dr John Neill and Minister for Tourism, Culture and Sport Mary Hanafin. The second phase involves the digitisation of Church of Ireland birth/marriage/death records from the city of Dublin and dioceses of Ardfert and Leighlin and Roman Catholic birth/marriage/death records from the Diocese of Cork and Ross. The www.irishgenealogy.ie website allows the public to view over 1,300 million pre-1900 Church records from Kerry and Dublin city free of charge. The launch took place on Wednesday 16 June 2010 at 6.00pm in St Werburgh’s Church, Werburgh Street, Dublin 8. 2) NARA Lists Microfilm Publications and Original Records Digitized by Commercial Partners The National Archives and Records Administration has now posted a list of all the documents that have been digitized and placed online by commercial partners. The partners are Ancestry.com and Footnote.com. If you want to see what is available online, first go tohttp://www.archives.gov/digitization/ ... tners.html 3) Lancashire Businesses online The University of Manchester has placed the records of 3000 small businesses between 1760 and 1820 online- most relating to Manchester and Liverpool. You can search via name, business and document for your grocer or wheelwright ancestor and read documents related to them. http://www.northwestfamilybusiness.arts ... Intro.aspx 4) http://www.hearthtax.org.uk/index.htm Not just welcome access to transcriptions of some of these useful records, but also a practical guide to the history and use of the records; we recommend this website as an authoritative source on the Hearth Tax of the 17th Century. We hope the project is able to continue its work. 5) Useful little tool – date of birth calculator Useful little tool: http://www.taubman.org.uk/datecalc/index.html |
